Society: Most Uburzians strive for physical prowess, and participate conscientious in the political System. Environmentalism is deeply rooted in their traditions since the dawn of steam power.


Politics & Government: While the Emperor is an absolute Monarch, topping each and every decision, they traditionally rarely do so. A set of Regional and City wide Senate like Councils, where every Citizen over the age of thirteen is part of, governs the every day life aspects of the Uburzians, while the Military is supervised by the Admirals and Generals sworn too the Emperor.

A smaller percentage is christian, after recent events divided in a dwindling number of Catholics and the Newly Found Independent Church of the Trinity Order

The holy Trinity Order:

Status: active & independent

Formed in the Year 1096 at the beginning of the First Crusade, the Order at first was just a Bunch of Mercenaries and Disillusioned Men from Several Small Kingdoms in what is now Neu Uburzis. After returning home, they overthrew several rulers in the south of current Day Neu Uburzis, establishing a christian protectorate under the Grand Master Rule. They built their capital in the City of Nordberg.

In 1627 the Order is dragged into a war between feuding Lords over the Translation of the Bible. In the end the war last until 1651, devouring most of the Orders Military forces. Only through agreements with the newly Crowned Emperor Friedrich the Calm does the Order survive, taking up responsibility of policing the Land, ensuring the safety of all Christians in the empire, at the price of their Sovereign territory.

1652: the Order changes their Seat to Neu Uburzis City, and rebuilt the Cathedral there, expanding it massively to a towering Gothic Goliath. The Order takes up the Role of the Empires de Facto Police, the Grand Master is also the Bishop of Neu Uburzis ever since. Several small Convents are built to train the new Knights.

1811: the Order looses an internal Struggle with Emperor Kondrad the Third over secularization of Police Forces. The following Outfall between the Emperor and the Grand Master Results in the Diplomatic shut down of the Empire to the Outside, and the End of the Orders actual political power, as most Uburzians Convert to the Refounded Paganistic Faith of the Divine Spirits.

2017: After Extremist Groups from the dwindling Orders Ranks attempted to kidnap and force recruit several children, among them the Emperor, the Grand Master asked the Pope to excommunicate the culprits, yet in return is faced with the order to disband. Grand Master Schultz refuses, and calls out the Order as a Separate Church, of the few remaining Uburzian Christians many following the Order as they had been their spiritual Leaders for the last two centuries.

Current Grand Master: Former Bishop Erik Schultz (https://independentorder.net/index.php?topic=149.msg1732#msg1732)
